Down below the hanger, Edward has already zoomed out of the engineering bay in the ATCV. "Private Edward reporting to Captain Esailia! All modifications are finished and secure. Falling in behind the GEARs!" the fox was yelling as he spoke into his radio, due to the roaring all around him from the GEARs' legs booming the ground and the sound of the engine. Meanwhile in the hanger...

The chopper's blades were almost at take off speed when Nathanial and Naida dashed into the hanger bay. "Next time listen to me!" The fox was yelling to Nathanial, who was already panting slightly. Neither said anything as the leapt for the chopper just as the skids were raising off the floor, only managing to get in at the last moment, Esailia staring at them the whole time. The pair gave a halfhearted salute to Esailia, who said nothing to them, simply looked back down at her PADD, clicking on her comm "Good work, Private. I knew you could do it." before swapping to the pilot's frequency "Captain Esailia to chopper pilot. My soldiers have jumped from low flying aircraft in the past. Inform me if the drop point is hot when we get there."

Esailia then turned her attention to her last two soldiers "Next time listen to her. Her nose is better than yours." The feline captain chuckled, and started coughing lightly "I hate flying." She muttered under her breath, staring out the door as the zipped through the air.
